Domaine Comtes Lafon Volnay Premier Cru 2020
Burgundy wine Volnay Premier Cru
A more elegant and wonderfully pure nose of red pinot fruit liqueur merges into rich, full and sweet flavors that possess lovely detail and a subtle minerality on the punchy, deep and long finish supported by relatively light but sophisticated tannins. I really like the balance here and this is a silky wine of refinement and class."

Chassagne Clos St J
2024 was a cool vintage with small volumes in Burgundy, giving lighter, more easy-drinking reds. At just 12.5%, this red Chassagne should show bright red and black fruit, a palate between finesse and concentration
Domaine Mikulski
Meursault
ight gold robe, green highlights, very luminous. A particularly fresh nose – from small white flowers and elegant fine herbs chervil, grass, primroses and daffodils, aniseed and sugar candy, icing sugar, ginger and eucalyptus strip
Clos Des Lambrays
Morey Saint Denis
The colour is ruby with purple tints. The nose combines black cherry and fresh raspberry, peony and violet, with a touch of orange zest, undergrowth and limestone

Clos St Philibert
Domaine Pillot F&l
